Well I finally got my wish to work in New York city,

It isn't everything that I hoped it would be,

I while away the lonely hours, gazing at the city towers,

Wondering if there isn't someone in there just for me,





Am I ever gonna fall in love in New York City?

Will I ever find a home so far from Tenassee?

Theres no future in the single bars, nothing but the one night stars,

Am I ever gonna fall in love in New York City?





My ambition and wish ?

But I'm missin the tradition,

Everybody in a hurry,

No ones got the time and no ones got the time of day.





Am I ever gonna fall in love in New York City?

Will I ever find a home so far from Tenassee?

Theres no future in the single bars, nothing but the one night stars,

Am I ever gonna fall in love in New York City?





One city is'nt pretty if you see it on your own,

It's a fabulous place ?

There's no one I know to cherish, no one I can hug, and no one around ? day.
